Summary:
Zip code 73570 includes two schools in Tipton: Tipton Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through grade 8, and Tipton High School, serving grades 9–12; both are in the Tipton district. The clearest area-wide takeaway is that results vary sharply by subject: U.S. History is a strong point at the high school, while its math and English results are well below state levels.
Tipton High School stands out in U.S. History: in 2025–2026, 55% were proficient, compared with 41% statewide, a 14-point advantage; its 11th-grade result had the same advantage. Its weakest subject was math, at 8% versus 25% statewide, while ELA was 18% versus 26%. In 11th grade, ELA was 18% versus 36% statewide, and math was 8% versus 17%. Tipton Elementary School stood out in science, with 36% proficient versus 30% statewide, but its ELA and math results were below the state by 6 and 4 points. Because the schools serve different grades, their All Grades results do not support a fair overall ranking against each other.
Results are moving in different directions: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, high-school math rose 6 points and science rose 5, narrowing their gaps with the state, while ELA fell 4 points and its gap widened. Elementary ELA rose 2 points, while math fell 2. SchoolDigger’s high-school percentile ranking climbed from 5 in 2023–2024 to 53 in 2025–2026; these are rankings, not test scores. Other useful context: the high school’s 2024–2025 graduation rate was 96%, 18 points above the state, and both schools’ 2025–2026 chronic absenteeism rates were below the state’s 16%—7% at the elementary school and 10% at the high school. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible was 74% at the elementary school and 66% at the high school; student–teacher ratios were 11.9 and 15.4, respectively. These figures describe school context, not the cause of results.
